    GREAT video, Izzy!! Being someone else who doesn't have an excess amount of zero's in my bank account, it's refreshing to see how others - similarly endowed - resolved unique problems. More so than wood, when I was restoring historic race cars I often had to... INVENT... ways of producing final products without the benefit of all the 'gee-whiz, no-shit' tools that major shops possessed. Seven championships in ten years... I think I got it right!

    I worked in shop 9:55 that had 20" joiner. It was a scary beast but necessary to face big loads of hardwood into S4S. It had severely
    Injured one worker. All he got back was 4 partial fingers and no thumb. Facing material was a dangerous task in those days. I personally introduced push pads to the shop when they came out.
    I like this bandsaw technique. It takes care of 90% of the small shop facing and edging needs for boards under 15" 9:55 I've used a table Saw with a jig for edging. Now I mostly use the first track saw, a shop made straight edge jig and a worm drive saw.
    I used that for years to edge. I would always bring the hand tool to the big boards if I could. It's a lot less strain on the body.

  • @RobbieSongwriter
    @RobbieSongwriter 10 місяців тому +1

    Izzy, your stuff is always just GENIUS!😲I think Maggie did you a BIG favor saying no. Not just saving money, but for longer and wider boards, it COULD produce better results, due to stable material handling. That Powermatic Jointer you showed is a GREAT tool, but if memory serves, thats a chip shield and does nothing to hold the material flat on the table, so on long stock like you were milling, any error suporting the material on the feed could show up on the milled board. Setting up featherboards or other hold downs, just seems like a lot more trouble. In a small shop, your design just seems more doable and bulletproof. THANKS for sharing this.😎

    Fyi “S4S stands for "surfaced on 4 sides", meaning that the material is finished on all four sides. Dimensional lumber is commonly S4S. S4S finished lumber and dimensional lumber are labeled according to nominal size, or the size of the rough board before it was planed smooth”

    I came across your $100 chainsaw mill, while looking for ideas on how to mill the logs I've cleared from my land. I'm too old (and sore) to invest money in a bandsaw, so this is perfect solution. I will be using an aluminum ladder for my track. I've since started watching your other videos, and as a former carpenter, I admire your ingenuity and thoughtful planning. I look forward to watching more videos, and seeing what else you will come up with. Keep them coming.

    Nice Jig and useful for many things, especially long Veneer Flitch for more exotic wood, but for the purpose of a jointer you just took off a lot of wood. That looks close to a 1/4 inch. With a jointer and planner that's a lot of discard. It might not matter much if you only plane a few times a year. You are also basing the 2 for 90 degrees for the 10 or 12 inches. Don't see getting a consistent square. If you are getting hardwood from a wholesale supplier can't see it turning out square boards, that are ready for light sanding. Really nice jig though and will build it for all the other uses, mainly turning logs to dimension lumber.

    If you need to flatten rough sawn, a sled for your planer might save more of the original dimensions. This setup definitely reduces the load on dust collection, though. I’d suggest it’s better for resawing rather than “jointing”, but it’s a very nice rig!

Granted this isn't for me (I'll never deal with lumber this size), but this does give ideas for smaller jigs to do smaller resawing. One thing my Jet bandsaw just doesn't like doing is resawing AT ALL. Blade wanders so much it's crazy. Many articles I've read is to use a "Re-Saw Sled", but they stop there...now seeing this? Yea...I see something.

    For your viewers that dont have a bandsaw , a handheld power planer and 2 scraps of paralell wood as winding sticks and a straight edge makes short work of flattening wood .... It needs a bit of skill knowing where to take off wood from and it takes a bit of time , but once you develop that skill , face jointing becomes a breeze .. a power planer helps make it quick and you can find a makita power planer for quite a good price on market place some times as little as $20

    Excellent. I see a smaller version for all sorts of cool stuff. Don't feel bad sport - Mrs. Skiggly does not love me anymore either. Completely shut down all tool purchases regardless how much I whine and complain. "I NEED IT" used to work. Now she asks "WWID?" (What Would Izzy Do)

    Love you, love Maggie, love my band saw but frankly Izzy, I could more easily fit a jointer (no I couldn’t) than fit a jig like this in my tiny shop. Looking forward to tiny shop jigs in the future.
